Ernesto was still struggling over Eastern Cuba late tonight. May be generous to still call him a tropical storm, however, the NHC is still using 40 mph as the sustained winds.
He was moving WNW at 12 mph from a position 20 miles north of Camaguey or about 520 miles SE of Key West. Latest NHC track forecast has been shifted westward slightly.
* Through the Central Florida Keys to west of Miami late Tuesday
* North to near Lake Okeechobee, to Daytona and offshore for awhile and then back on land north of Charleston Thursday evening.
* Continuing north to the North Carolina-Virginia border Thursday evening.
*Then into Maryland
5 to 10 inches of rain for East and South Florida and the Keys through Wednesday
Ernesto may slow down over the Mid-Atlantic states and that could spell trouble with heavy rains
Ernesto will not have much of a chance regaining hurricane status but that is not sealed in stone.
